I've earned the Dog over 20 times and maybe have 8 kills with it. Majority of the time I get shot and die but the dog just chills, once I die it runs after the guy in a straight line and gets shot and killed. I've even run into guys face to face and have my dog just watch me die.

The only time I had multiple kills with the dog is when I had the Maniac Suit on and the dog at the same time, then it was effective. Everyone is saying the dog is borderline OP but I've found him pretty useless if anything.

Is there a button that can make the dog move to a specific spot or an attack button?

the dog will go after enemies if it sees them, the dog goes after the enemies after you die because that is when the dog sees the enemy mostly its behind you so it cant see overall most people say the dog is OP because its health is 2x what is urs you have 25% health the dog has 75%

I've been shot at by people who are out in the open multiple times, gone to cover. Yet the dog still does nothing. The enemy is clearly is the dogs site line, but it doesn't do anything. Maybe I'm just not doing the right things when I have the dog.

how close are the enemies they gotta be pretty close. like if you are rounding corner and enemy is there the dog will charge him, or if someone gets the drop on you from behind the dog will charge them, it does not charge like long distance gotta be medium/close I believe.

the dog has your line of sight from what i heard so if like you look at an enemy but dont kill him and run behind cover and the enemy isnt that far then the dog will chase him.

One gamemode where i found the dog to be very useful is in Blitz get the dog near the enemy objective and then go in the portable the dog wont port with you so the dog will run around the enemy base killing as much he can before returning to you i think once my dog got me like 3 kills before coming back awesome right

The damn dog sucks. There should be four commands mapped to the d-pad. Attack, stay and protect an area, come to where you are, and follow. I thought of that in like five minutes, they had two years to think that out.
